Helping companies to design and implement secure and scalable Java, Spring Boot applications

Do you need to leverage Spring Boot and/or Spring Framework in an Agile environment?

Do your applications need to integrate with 3rd party systems and/or in-house applications using SOAP, RESTful APIs or via Pub/Sub messaging?

Do you need to modernize your legacy Java applications?

Do you need a Proof of Concepts to make a decision about which technology to use?

I have two decades of experience developing Java Enterprise applications, helping with Web Applications, Systems Integration, Application Modernization, and Cloud adoption and migration.

I’m also a Spring Framework advocate which I started using during its 2.0 days, back in 2007.
